She jumped a little when he shouted at her. Knitting her brows together she shook her head slightly. "They are professionals though... should I not listen to PROFESSIONALS?" she said, putting emphasis on the word Professionals.
Waving her hands wildly she said, "I think you and I both know that what people see and think affect one far more than the facts more often than not. That is what frightens me about this whole thing."
Ivan snorted and shook his head, "Yeah I doubt I will but thanks." He grabbed her hand and pulled it away from her mouth so she'd stop biting her nails. "It's a bad habit. And anyway it's not a high priority anymore for me right now with everything else."
Seeing her jump he winced slightly. He hadn't meant to scare her. "Are you kidding? If I listened to everything PROFESSIONALS said well...let's just say they aren't always right about things. They deal with what everyone else considers the norm. But every person is different. Instead of dealing with that they just stick with the norm and say you are different."
"I don't know what to say Lexi," he said standing up and stretching. "But I think you should get off those potions. They aren't really helping you."
